New Story: Lady Red.

I forgot more -

Me and my one (white) friend from my program who's originally from Mississippi and who I got hooked on karaoke were talking about when we went to krunk karaoke, and he mentioned how Lady Red is protective of her real identity, and when I asked him about that, since I hadn't noticed it, he told me about this exchange he witnessed when he went up to the table to get a songbook:

A (black) man: "Lady Red, that's your name?"

Lady Red: "Yeah."

A (black) man: "That's your real name?"

Lady Red: (curtly) "Yep."

After that, the guy backed down, intimidated.
